Wait til Next Year
Well…that was a disheartening way to end the season. The Cubs make the playoffs with the best record in NL, one of the best offenses NL, one of the deepest rotations in the NL, and with a good end of the game bullpen. The stars seemed aligned to make a good playoff push.
Sadly, the offense [...]

EA’s at it again.
To think I’d been opening up to EA a little bit lately. They are starting some new IPs rather then churning out everything as a yearly sequel or movie tie in. I felt beyond keeping DRM in their future games, they did a farily good job handling the spore issues.
However it seems now their desire [...]

NFL Week 3 Review
Another football week done and another one chalked full of it’s own stories. This weeks biggest story was the New England Patriots getting embrarased by the Miami Dolphins. Hardly anyone saw this coming, especially after Joey Portor gave the Patriots some Bullentian board material and the fact that the last regular season game the Patriots [...]

What a baseball weekend
First and foremost, it’s not official the cubs are in the post season and won the division. They far exceeded my predictions, of 88 wins as they have an off chance of 100 wins, however given I’d expect Z and harden to get an extra bit of rest in the final 7 games, I’d be [...]

NFL Week 2 Review
What a week for come backs week 2 was. In 8 of the games was the team that won trailing in the 4th quarter. Including…the panthers. The bears played an okay game and should have been good enough to win. However Orton complete lack of a deep ball resulting in wasted plays and missing a [...]

NFL Week 1 Recap
After such a long time of waiting, it’s finally time for football. Sadly…the cubs seemed to get the message that baseball isn’t important anymore and have decided to not win anymore games*grumbles*. But that’s enough baseball.
Let’s start with the Bears. Thank’s to a Sunday Night Football, I was able to watch the Bears season opener [...]

First to 80
With us approaching the last few weeks of baseball, the Cubs are still playing like the best team in baseball. It’s getting harder and harder to not want to believe this year is finally here. Even as someone whose really only been a cubs fan since Sosa and McGuire were battling it out for the [...]

Congragulations Griffey!
Well it finally happened today. Ken Griffery Jr. hit the big 600 today. Much of what I have to say about Griffey was said in my earlier post. So this is just a simple tip of that hat to a player that got me into the sport I love today.
Way to go Jr. and without [...]

And the streak ends.
So it’s been a while since I’ve written something not about video games it seems. So let’s talk about the Cubs again.
Quite simply they are rocking it so far this season. They lost their first game today in the last 10 they played. They have the best record in baseball. The first time they have [...]

7,670 wins, 43 seasons with a winning record…
…3 100 win seasons gets you 0 world series
The lovable losers putting a little a little question into that nick name as they became the 2nd team in MLB history to achieve 10,000 wins after the victory over the Rockies last night. Yet those 10,000 wins haven’t really amounted to much of anything to [...]
